In many games like FIFA 19 , there is an idea circulating that Twitch streamers and YouTubers have better chances with loot boxes than regular players. Now, during a hearing, a detail came to light that at least gives new fuel to this rumor, but does not confirm it.
In FIFA 19, players buy card packs and then open them in hopes of drawing particularly strong players. However, the chance of getting the right superstars is virtually negligible.
Players believe that these chances might be manipulated.
The YouTube video of a pack opening for FIFA 15 has now garnered 40 million views.
Some FIFA players have felt for years:
I only get rubbish
But YouTubers or Twitch streamers often get super players
This idea of favoritism towards content creators has circulated – like the idea of momentum – for years in the community. Some dismiss it as selective perception or a conspiracy theory. But others firmly believe that something is fishy.
Until now, there has not been any real “evidence” but it has been referred to the realm of “player superstition”.
These pack openings are also popular on German YouTube and generate views – especially the exceptionally good ones.
Streamer manager says: It was considered just once
At a workshop on “loot boxes” by the US Federal Trade Commission, loot boxes were the topic.
Omeed Dariani, the CEO of a streamer agency, was asked here about the relationship between publishers and streamers regarding the topic of “loot boxes”.
In Star Wars Battlefront 2, loot boxes caused a lot of trouble.
He says: “Companies pay streamers to open loot boxes.” Although it is rare for someone to say: “Hey, just open a lot of loot boxes,” it does happen.
Dariani says: “I have definitely been in a room where a publisher said, we could give this person better chances with the packs if he opens them for advertising reasons.”
However, this has only happened once. Dariani does not say which game this was specifically proposed for or which publisher is meant. So it is not clear whether it was FIFA 19.
Further, it is not known whether a Twitch streamer or YouTuber ever really had “better chances”. What is known is that at least one publisher has toyed with the idea.
In Fortnite: Save the World, there are now transparent loot boxes.
Loot boxes are important for Twitch streamers
Why are loot boxes appealing to viewers? Dariani explains: “It’s exciting. You never know what will come out. You never know if they will get rare stuff. But hey, I don’t have to spend thousands of dollars to buy my own loot boxes, I can watch someone else do it.”
This is how streamers handle sponsorships: According to Dariani, streamers do not hide the fact that they are supported by companies. For them, it is a badge of honor.
They then tell their viewers: “Look, EA sees that my content is valuable. They pay me. They support my work and the community I have built.”
For many people, this is a validation and a signal of growth.
Paid pack openings create the impression of “better loot boxes”
Here’s what it’s about: From the information:
it becomes clear that streamers sometimes actually open loot boxes with “other people’s money”
but it is not clear that they really have better chances
However, publishers seem to be using streamers and YouTubers to promote loot boxes. Especially on YouTube, the videos with the very best openings get the most clicks. By highlighting these highlights, the feeling is reinforced that the chances are better than in the daily lives of players.
In the loot shooter Borderlands 3 there is unrest in the community a month before the release. YouTuber SupMatto made allegations that the publisher 2k had sent detectives to his home – following which others called for a boycott of Borderlands 3. 2k now confirms that detectives were sent. But the situation is different from how the YouTuber presents it.
This is the situation: About a week ago, a test stream went live, showing 4 hours of gameplay from Borderlands 3. A YouTuber reported on this “secret” stream. That YouTuber was Matt “SupMatto” Somers (featured image). He has been uploading videos about the Borderlands series on his channel since 2015.
As a result, the publisher of Borderlands 3, Take-Two, reportedly issued seven copyright strikes against SupMatto on YouTube and sent him two “Private Investigators,” as the YouTuber described in a video.
In the community, some expressed solidarity with the YouTuber and the hashtag #BoycottBorderlands3 trended for four hours on Twitter in the USA. One reason for this boycott call was that it should not be allowed for a company to intimidate a YouTuber like this.
2k says: We have been investigating SupMatto for 10 months
This is what Take-Two says now: A spokesperson for 2k says in a statement to IGN: “Take Two and 2k take the security and confidentiality of our trade secrets very seriously. The action we took this week was the result of a 10-month investigation.”
It is further stated that this “content creator,” meaning SupMatto, had long benefited from violating Take-Two’s policies and leaking confidential information about their products. He had violated 2k’s copyright.
This is what the YouTuber says: The YouTuber represented in the video that the official Borderlands YouTube channel had posted a hint about the test channel on YouTube on April 29 itself. This test channel for the stream of Borderlands 3 was not found by him, but was generally known.
YouTuber apparently knew too much
This is what the YouTuber allegedly did according to 2k: According to 2k, the YouTuber misrepresents the situation. He supposedly exploited a vulnerability in Twitch’s security system. The Twitch stream for Borderlands 3 was private, not public, as SupMatto states.
SupMatto reportedly published videos in 2018 that contained accurate information about characters and mechanics in Borderlands 3 that were not yet official:
The YouTuber is also said to have operated a Discord channel where he published further leaked information about Borderlands 3. Players gained access to this channel if they purchased a $5 membership for SupMatto’s YouTube channel.
Take-Two views the action against the YouTuber as part of their efforts to close leaks and maintain the confidentiality of trade secrets. They want to prevent such leaks from having a negative impact on fans and customers.
What happens next? IGN also states that Discord and Twitch are likely investigating the respective account of SupMatto. SupMatto’s Discord channel was allegedly locked 20 minutes after the visit of the private detectives due to “the sale, promotion, or distribution of hacks, cheats, or cracked accounts.”
2k and Take-Two do not seemingly want to take further action against the leaker.
SupMatto himself has deleted his Twitter account and announced a break from YouTube.
He will then see in September whether he will even play Borderlands 3. At the moment he is out. He seems to have been at the source for too long and now needs to step back from Borderlands 3.
In the second week of Season 10 in Fortnite, the missions “Colorful Shooting” are on. In keeping with this, you need to find 5 left-behind spray cans. We will show you the exact locations.
What is the exact task? The mission is “Find left-behind spray cans”. You have to find a total of 5 in order to complete the challenge.
The spray cans are scattered all over the map. There are more than 5 locations, but it’s enough if you find just 5. We will show you some locations here:
These are some locations of the spray cans
All locations of the left-behind spray cans in Season 10
Where should you search? The spray cans are often really well hidden and not directly visible. So take a close look at the indicated locations.
Spray Can 1: At the end of the lava river by the archway. The spray can is hidden behind the middle beam
Spray Can 2: In the small cave by the umbrella south of The Block. Go inside and directly in front of the barrels is the can
Spray Can 3: Behind the junkyard south of Paradise Palms. The spray can is located behind a tree there
Spray Can 4: In front of the disco northeast of Happy Hamlet. There is a container and a tent. You will find it right next to the tent
Spray Can 5: Far north of Junk Junction, you will find a pile of junk to the left of the basketball court. You can find the spray can there too
Spray Can 6: In the mine of Shifty Shafts, you will find a spray can directly behind a wooden wall. It is hidden behind a pillar
Spray Can 7: In the abandoned villa south of Lonely Lodge, you will find a spray can under a metal staircase
Spray Can 8: In front of the frozen waterfall under the Viking village, you will find the spray can next to a tree
This gives you a hint: To let you know that you are searching in the right position, you will also find a graffiti of the skin Teknique near the can. It is the hint for the sought-after can.
This spray indicates the spray cans
How do I complete the task? You just need to collect each of the spray cans. If you have all 5, the task is considered completed.
Use this video: We will embed here a video of the exact locations. This way you can easily complete the challenge:

With Destiny 2, the release of Shadowkeep is slowly approaching. Until then, the developers want to share a lot of interesting information on important topics with the fans. We will show what Bungie is planning before the release.
What is Shadowkeep? Shadowkeep is the name of the upcoming fall expansion for Destiny 2. It will be released on October 1, 2019, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
It will not only bring new content such as the Moon location, a new raid, or fresh exotics, but also numerous changes to the game – for example, to the in-game shop Eververse or the armor system.
What is the planned information flood about? Even though Bungie has already revealed some details about the new expansion, fans still have many unanswered questions – for example, about the new Armor 2.0 system or PvP. The studio aims to address many of these topics before the release of Shadowkeep.
Information roadmap until Shadowkeep – What Bungie wants to discuss
In the current “This Week at Bungie” blog, Bungie has now announced how they intend to satisfy the knowledge thirst of eager Guardians until October 1. The studio has a lot planned for this. Here’s what you can expect:
Insights into the learnings from Destiny 2 for Shadowkeep: Already next week (starting August 12), Destiny’s Franchise Director Luke Smith will release a kind of Director’s Cut on the current State of the Game.
In it, he will reflect on the past six months of Destiny 2, discuss what has been learned, and which changes will result from it for Shadowkeep.
This will actually be the first of two parts of the post. However, this part alone is expected to be over 4,100 words long. The second part is expected to follow shortly and will be of approximately the same length.
Armor customization preview: Also next week (on August 14), there will be a stream in which the developers want to highlight the new Armor 2.0 system and its possibilities. Bungie wants to show you how to “build a better monster-killing machine”.
In the live stream, the developers will assemble a Titan, a Warlock, and a Hunter. They will use various mods, artifacts, and ornaments on the armor and test the new builds in the sandbox.
Destiny 2 at Gamescom: Bungie will be present at the big gaming fair Gamescom, which opens on August 19 with the Opening Night Show (running until August 24). During the fair, there will be more new details about the Shadowkeep expansion.
The seasons in year 3 of Destiny 2: The developers also want to address how the seasons of Destiny 2 will change in the third year of the game.
So far, it is only known that the seasons will be independent of each other. This means they can all be purchased separately. So if you do not like the content of a specific season, you can simply skip it.
PvP in Shadowkeep: Many fans are curious about the future of Destiny 2’s Crucible. The developers also apparently want to address this topic before the launch. A PvP reveal is expected beforehand. Additionally, there should be an invite to the Crucible at the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX), which runs from August 30 to September 2.
What else is coming? Bungie has not yet provided an explicit answer to this. However, the studio emphasizes that the previously announced topics are just a few highlights, and there will be more. Everything will be compressed into a kind of final push in September.
Are you already excited about the latest info? What topic concerns you the most leading up to Shadowkeep? What do you want to know more about?
Borderlands 3 has released the final trailer for its four playable characters. This time it focuses on the long-awaited Beastmaster FL4K, who leads various pets into battle.
Who is FL4K? FL4K is a kind of cyber being that is fond of animals. With a horde of adorable monsters, he traverses the wasteland and confronts various psychos that ambush him.
FL4K is on the hunt with pets
What can be seen in the trailer? FL4K appears to be an experienced hunter who can easily see through cheap traps like those set by the psychos in the trailer. He can turn invisible and thus surprise the psychos. When they sound the alarm for a major attack, he calls his animals for help.
These are:
A kind of insect with a mechanical drill for an arm
A kind of monkey monster
A creature that seems to love chasing cars and appears somewhat dim-witted.
Additionally, FL4K can summon flying beasts that attack enemies from the air.
You can find the video with FL4K and his animals here:

The new mission challenges in Season 10 of Fortnite this week feature the theme “Colorful Shootout.” One of the prestige tasks requires you to visit 2 billboards covered in graffiti in a single match. You can find out where the billboards are here.
This is the challenge: To tackle the prestige missions of week 2 in Season 10 in Fortnite, you need to visit billboards adorned with graffiti. You must visit two of them in a single match.
Since these are prestige tasks, you will only see them once you have completed all regular seven challenges of the Colorful Shootout mission.
All locations of the graffiti-covered billboards in Season 10
Where are the billboards? Fortunately, the two required billboards are not far apart. You can find them here on the map:
You can find detailed descriptions of the locations here:
Northeast of the hill with “Grandma’s House” at the intersection near E7
Directly in front of the entrance to Shifty Shafts, next to the Reboot Van
The two billboards have a large smiley face with a “GG” on it. It is sufficient to simply visit the billboards. You do not need to spray them or interact with them in any other way.
Is there a video for this? We have embedded a video from YouTuber Tabor Hill here. In it, you can see in detail how to find the billboards with the graffiti. Have fun!

What you should pay attention to: In itself, the path between the two billboards is not too long. But malicious players might be lurking there. So land quickly and sail directly to Shifty Shafts right after registering the first billboard at E7 and watch out for sneaky foes.
You might also try it in the Team Rumble mode, as you have respawns and do not lose your progress if you get killed.

In Pokémon GO there is the new update 0.151.0. Especially 3 innovations should please many fans. We show you what it has to offer.
What kind of update is this? The update 0.151.0 is currently being rolled out. This means that not all players can download it yet. In the coming days, you can certainly expect all the innovations.
There are no huge features, but data miners have found new Crypto Pokémon and some visual adjustments.
More Crypto Pokémon have been found in the game data
The most important innovations in update 0.151.0
These Crypto Pokémon have been found: The update has included 20 new Crypto Pokémon. These include:
Diglett, Dugtrio
Krabby, Kingler
Shellder, Cloyster
Geodude, Graveler, Golem
Kangaskhan
Rhyhorn, Rhydon, Rhyperior
Murcrow, Honchkrow
Hippopotas, Hippowdon
Hawlucha, Gible, Gabite
The Hawlucha family could soon also appear in the Crypto version
Although all Pokémon were found in the update, they are not yet in the game. When Niantic will release these monsters in their Crypto version remains to be seen.
Are new hats coming for Pokémon? A discovery in the game files surprises the data miners. Pokémon like Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, and Pikachu were found with the suffix “Fall”, meaning “Autumn”.
It is now suspected that these Pokémon might wear a hat at an event in autumn. Something will definitely happen with these Pokémon, as otherwise they wouldn’t have been found with this suffix in the code.
Fights in PvP mode are now clearer: This small change delights thousands of players, as it was really annoying, especially in battles against Team Rocket: You can now see the HP display during team selection in the PvP mode.
This was not possible before, which is why you didn’t know whether your team was healed or not. Now it can be seen at a glance.
What else is new? Otherwise, there have mainly been visual adjustments. Hatching eggs now has a new animation that somewhat resembles the animation when releasing Pokémon.
This is what the animation looks like now. Source: Reddit
Additionally, the ball size has been readjusted again after it was changed with the last update. Accordingly, the Pokéball is also back in front of the circle when thrown and not behind the circle. This was also introduced with the last update.
The Safari Zone in Canada starts in September. Even we German players have something to gain from it:
With Title Update 5 and the “Episode 1 – D.C. Outskirts: Expeditions” DLC, The Division 2 received some new content in July 2019. What’s inside? And how does the first of three planned DLCs for Year 1 fare? We reveal for whom the new content is now worthwhile.
What are the DLCs about? For the first year of The Division 2, 3 DLCs are planned, which will be released in an episodic format and will continuously provide new content for the tactical shooter.
These DLCs are available for free to all players—except for some secret missions—even without the Year 1 Pass. Owners of the pass get 7 days of early access to these new contents.
On July 23rd, “Episode 1” became available for Year Pass holders, while all other agents have been able to play this first DLC since July 30th on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
What’s inside Episode 1 – The Contents
The “Episode 1” DLC is called D.C. Outskirts: Expeditions, and as the name suggests, it takes agents to the wooded outskirts of Washington D.C.. There, players can discover new missions and a new PvE activity.
These are the new contents:
Two new story missions: Players can now undertake two new main missions outside Washington D.C.:
Manning National Zoo
and Camp White Oak.
These are full-fledged missions that can easily match in length and presentation with other main missions in the game.
In the zoo, agents need to hunt down and eliminate the Outcast leader Emeline Shaw, who has recovered from her defeat on Roosevelt Island and has now barricaded herself with her followers in the zoo.
In Camp White Oak, you need to attack the Black Tusk and capture one of their leaders. This elite mercenary group has taken over an estate deep in the forests near Washington, which you must now cleanse.
A new PvE activity – Expeditions: This is a kind of puzzle activity on the wooded edge of Washington.
The Expeditions take you to the grounds of Kenly College, where you must complete different tasks in three different sections to find friendly survivors and uncover the fate of a lost military convoy. During this, you can demonstrate your exploration, puzzle, and combat skills.
The Expeditions are somewhat larger than the regular story missions in the game.
New secret missions: Owners of the Year 1 Pass can also look forward to two new secret missions called Classified Assignments.
These are somewhat shorter missions that delve deeper into various events surrounding the fall of Washington D.C. These secret missions place a strong focus on the story. For example, you learn more about the civilian population or some factions in the game.
The two new Classified Assignments are called “Central Aquarium” and “NSA Site B13.” They take you to an aquarium complex where you need to rescue civilians being besieged by the Hyenas, and to a secret NSA base that you need to cleanse of the Black Tusk.
New Exotics: With Title Update 5, two new exotic items came into the game. However, even though they were declared as part of the update, they can only be obtained through the new content of Episode 1.
The exotic gloves BTSU-Gloves can be obtained as a random drop from the end boss of the new main mission Camp White Oak
New weapons: Also with Title Update 5, 2 new firearms have been introduced to the game. While these can drop randomly everywhere, you will certainly receive these weapons from the two new story missions of Episode 1.
The Stoner LMG can be obtained during the initial playthrough of Camp White Oak
The Carbine 7 assault rifle is obtained after mastering Manning National Zoo for the first time.
New cosmetic collectibles: There are also new contents for collectors. In addition to numerous new mobile phones and recordings, there are also 5 new backpack charms. All of them can be found in the Expeditions or the new secret missions of Episode 1.
What else has changed with Title Update 5: The first DLC was released hand in hand with the major Title Update 5. This included numerous changes and improvements to the game. Included were among other things:
The fans have mixed feelings about the new content.
Pro: The numerous changes that came into the game with Title Update 5 are especially highlighted positively. The overhaul of the skills has been particularly well-received – finally skill builds like the Bomber Drone are genuinely useful.
Both of the new Exotics are strong and are well-received by the fans. Furthermore, the two new story missions from Episode 1 are praised. The missions are exciting and interesting, and the new environment is simply great. Many agents wish for more like this.
Many agents see no reason to engage in this activity permanently after having mastered all three sections once and secured the new weapon exotic and possibly the collectibles there.
Overall, the content volume is considered too small by some fans. Once you have played the two new missions, as well as the Kenly College and the 2 small secret missions as a season pass holder, you’ve essentially seen everything new. Had the expedition sections not been staggered in release, many would have already completed it all on the first day, according to some players’ criticism.
Whether the numerous changes from Title Update 5 and the two new Exotics with their respective new build possibilities can keep the fans entertained until the next content drop in the upcoming fall remains doubtful for many players.
Who is it worth it for?
Anyone who still enjoys The Division 2 and has stayed engaged despite the lack of new content will have plenty of reasons to continue doing so, especially due to the many changes from Title Update 5.
Especially with the changes to the skills and the two new Exotics, there are now numerous new build possibilities that want to be tested. The new missions and the Expeditions are essentially a nice addition that further expands the world of The Division 2.
However, those hoping for substantial content that can keep them engaged for the long term will likely be disappointed.
Also, anyone who has taken a break and wanted to check back in with the new DLC won’t be able to benefit from the new content for long.
The Expeditions offer little replay value after a single playthrough, while the new story missions are designed quite well but ultimately offer nothing really different from the rest of the game. At least they bring a bit of variety. But even the secret missions are unlikely to be played again by many.
In short, the new contents are quite limited and quickly consumed. After that, The Division is essentially the same game regarding truly relevant long-term content as it was before the “Episode 1” DLC:
So anyone who was not really happy with the volume and activities in the game before the DLC will not be satisfied with it after its release – at least not in the long run.
However, those who had fun playing The Division 2 before are likely to continue to enjoy it with the DLC and the update.
Conclusion: It can be confidently recommended to anyone who already enjoys The Division 2 to log in and at least run through the new missions and Expeditions once. They are definitely fun!
Those who want more will continue to play anyway. The rest had at least a few hours of something new to see in The Division 2.
What do you think so far about Title Update 5 and the “Episode 1” DLC? Let us know in the comments.
In The Division 2, you can build a strong PvE build around the Diamondback. This deals over 1.2 million damage.
The build revolves around this weapon: The Diamondback is an exotic rifle that has been obtainable since 06.08 through the Expeditions of Episode 1.
The exotic immediately catches the eye with a striking design, and the community is divided on whether it’s cool or horrifically ugly: a rattlesnake winds around the barrel:
The weapon talents:
Painful Bite: The Diamondback randomly marks an enemy. If the enemy is hit, the mark is removed, and a critical hit with +20% total damage is guaranteed. Afterwards, or after every reload, a random additional enemy is marked.
Long Fangs: After hitting 5 marked enemies, +50% reload speed and +20% total damage are granted, and all shots fired are counted as critical hits for 10 seconds.
Skin Shedding: While the weapon is drawn, +20% additional armor is granted for 3 seconds with each round loaded. If the weapon is in the holster, +8% bonus armor is granted for 2 seconds each time during reload or weapon switch.
This is the build: The YouTuber NothingButSkillz presents his build around the Diamondback, which allows for over 1.2 million damage per shot. With this, you can kill named elite bosses with just 2 shots.
The build is designed primarily for PvE and fully relies on critical hit damage and headshots. In the video, the build is presented, and we explain it further in German:

Focus on these stats: A high damage output is at the forefront of this build. Skills should be fully neglected. You should have around 270,000 armor, 93,000 health points, and a proud 0 skill power. You need 12 offensive (red) and 7 defensive (blue) attributes.
Take this weapon with you: The important weapon is the Diamondback. The mods improve:
+10% precision
+10% damage against elite
+10% stability
+10% critical hit damage
These are the armor parts:
Mask from Murakami Industries with bonuses on health points and +42% damage against elite (mod). The talent is called Relentless and gives +10% damage against elite enemies. Thus, the mask alone grants +52% damage against elite.
Chest from Overlord Armaments with bonuses of +8% weapon damage, +18.5% critical hit damage (mod), and +7% headshot damage. The talents are “Unstoppable Force” (killing an enemy grants +2% weapon damage per 25,000 points of maximum armor value). With the mods, you can further increase rifle damage and armor.
Holster from Gila Guard with bonuses on health points and +13% critical hit damage (mod). With the mods, further increase rifle damage and weapon damage.
Knee pads from Overlord Armaments with bonuses on total armor and the talent Relentless. Here too, you increase weapon damage and rifle damage with mods.
Gloves from Overlord Armaments with bonuses on health points and +10% rifle damage (mod). The talent is Precise, which grants +15% headshot damage. You could also use the Relentless talent here.
Backpack from 5.11 Tactical with bonuses on 8% weapon damage (mod), armor, and health points. The talents are Relentless and Hardened (+10% armor). Improve weapon damage and rifle damage with the mods.
These benefits come from the brand sets:
3 pieces from Overlord Armaments provide +10% rifle damage, +7.5% armor, and +7% damage against elite
Murakami Industries grants +8% health points with one piece equipped
Gila Guard provides +5% armor with one piece equipped
5.11 Tactical gives +5% protection from elite with one piece equipped
In short: Improve rifle damage, weapon damage, critical hit damage, and damage against elite to create a true damage monster in PvE. Also improve armor to stay on your feet.
Overall, you should now be showing around 160,000 weapon damage, 87% critical hit damage, 22% weapon damage bonus, 51% rifle damage, 99% damage against elite, and 92% headshot damage with the Diamondback.
Over 1.2 million damage in practice
These are the skills: With the skills, you can choose the ones you prefer. For example, use the Reviver Drone and the Booster Chem Launcher to avoid going down too quickly, especially when playing solo.
This build may not be for everyone
This is how you play the build: If you quickly and accurately hit the marked enemies and thus activate the exotic talents, you can deal enormous damage with the Diamondback. The strength of this exotic depends largely on your precision and your ability to quickly target enemies. If you miss a shot, the buff resets.
Therefore, this build is mainly recommended for PC agents. You should be able to reliably land headshots. But with good aim, you can have fun with it on any platform.
What do you think of this build?
Do you prefer to focus on strong skills? Then check this out:
A new planet for Borderlands 3 has been revealed. Check out the trailer for the swampy world “Eden-6” here!
In a few weeks, the release of the loot shooter Borderlands 3 will finally take place. To keep the hype alive until the release, the developer Gearbox regularly shares new info snippets or small trailers about the characters and the game world. Now a new clip has been released that introduces the world “Eden-6”.
What is Eden-6? The planet Eden-6 is described as a “wet swamp hole” where civilization is still in its infancy. The true threats of this planet are the wild beasts that inhabit it.
For instance, there are the gigantic Saurians (let’s be honest: they are dinosaurs), which can breathe fire and be larger than houses. Also present are the more ape-like Jabbers, who jump down from trees and bash with clubs.

As if that weren’t enough, the Children of the Vault are also on Eden-6, happy to receive a beating. They are trying to gain control over the planet.
Jakobs and the Hammerlocks are also involved: There is a bit of civilization on Eden-6 after all. The villa of the Jakobs Clan, one of the weapon manufacturers in the Borderlands series, is located here. You’ll meet Wainwright Jakobs there – his familial connection to Marcus (the gun dealer) is still unknown.
Also joining the fray are Lady Aurelia Hammerlock and her brother Sir Hammerlock. It shouldn’t surprise anyone that they are navigating a rather wild planet, as they felt at home in the predecessor.
One of the new mission challenges in Season 10 of Fortnite themed “Spray and Pray” requires you to spray various gas stations in Fortnite. Where to find each gas station is explained here.
This is the challenge: The missions of Week 2 of Season 10 are themed “Spray and Pray”. You need to spray things with paint, including three gas stations. And they must be three different ones. However, you do not have to decorate all the gas stations in the same match; you can save the task as you wish.
Locations of all gas stations in Fortnite in Season 10
Where are the gas stations? You can see where to find gas stations here on the map.
Detailed descriptions of the locations can be found here:
At C3 near Pleasant Park is a gas station
At C4 south of Pleasant Park and west of Loot Lake is a gas station
At C5, between Snobby Shores and Tilted Town is a gas station
At F7 near Salty Springs is a gas station
At F9, north of Lucky Landing is a gas station
At G9, at the entrance to the desert biome is a gas station
At I8, in Paradise Palms is a gas station
There was also a gas station in Neo Tilted, but since a Western town was established here, the gas station is gone.
What do I do at a gas station? Simply go to the gas stations and spray any spray logo on the wall. Do this at three different gas stations and you have completed the task.
Is there also a video? We have embedded a video here. In it, you can see in detail how to find the gas stations. Have fun!
https://youtu.be/rbkSTU7CDLE
You should pay attention to this: Each gas station can be a death trap. Because evil players often lie in wait for you there and kill you while you want to spray. So be careful and look for the gas stations later in the match.
What are the other challenges? These tasks also await you with Spray and Pray:
In Pokémon GO there will be a new Safari Zone soon. It will take place in Montreal, Canada, but players worldwide will also benefit from it.
What kind of event is this? The Safari Zone is an event similar to the GO Fest. In a specific city, special Pokémon appear, and the highlight is always a regional Pokémon that can be caught there.
In September, such an event will come to the Canadian city of Montreal. There, Tropius and many other Pokémon will be available. For players worldwide, a new Shiny is likely.
This image announces the Safari Zone
That’s why the Safari Zone is worth it for German players
When does the event take place? The Safari Zone runs from September 20 to September 22. So it takes place over an entire weekend.
What do global players gain from it? From the past, we know that Niantic usually introduces a new Shiny globally on these weekends. This was recently the case with Pottrott or Enton.
If you look at the image for the Safari Zone in Montreal, it is likely that Shiny Yanma will be available there. After all, it is the Pokémon in the image that makes the most sense.
This is what Shiny Yanma looks like
When could the Shiny be released worldwide? So far, Shinys have always spawned throughout the entire weekend. It is likely that this will also be the case for Yanma.
What does the Safari Zone offer? Those who want to travel to Canada will be rewarded with special spawns. In the image, you can see the following Pokémon:
Yanma
Ponyta
Ninjask
Tropius
Unown (likely the letters QUEBEC)
Dragonfly
Additionally, more Pokémon that can evolve into speedy monsters are expected to appear. Some Pokémon in the image fit that description.
The Community Day in Pokémon GO has been announced. This time it focuses on Chelast:
Currently, many Guardians in Destiny 2 want to uncover a new secret about a cat statue. What is it all about?
Where is this cat statue: In the European Airzone, the new activity of the summer event, there is a hidden room where a cat statue was found. You can reach it by jumping left from the spawn point onto a rocky ledge that is located at the bottom of the wall. From there, you enter a cave – until a grate blocks your way.
This video shows you the exact way there:

Some Guardians have already managed to glitch behind the grate with a Sparrow. And there stands a strange cat statue:
What is the cat statue doing here?
What purpose does this cat statue serve? Guardians have already tried many things with the cat, but have not found a way to interact with it. It cannot be moved nor can you offer it a gift.
In other words: No one knows what this cat statue is doing in the European Airzone. Also, there is nothing else in the secret room to interact with.
Cat is a hot topic at raidsecrets
This is driving Guardians crazy: For days, there has been discussion in the raidsecrets subreddit about this statue. It is one of the top topics that thousands of Guardians are passionately debating.
The raidsecrets is a section in the reddit forum where players chase all kinds of secrets and puzzles. Guardians also team up here when searching for hidden things in new areas.
But even this theory has fizzled out. In the last 2 days, various attempts were made again, but nothing has changed about the cat statue.
Opinions are clearly divided on what the cat could mean. Some are increasingly sure that Bungie is just having fun and is now enjoying watching Guardians fervently search for a meaning.
Others continue to explore the secret room. One user noticed that the wall behind the cat is strangely designed. It looks like there are two rows of bricks:
The front wall is destroyed, only a few bricks are left stacked.
The back wall is still intact and has a different color and design than the front, destroyed wall. And this wall design has been used before to separate areas that should be accessed later, like the area in the Tower where Ada from the Black Armory is now standing.
It is suspected that Bungie will remove this back wall at a later date – possibly as part of an Exotic Quest – and then the front wall will give the impression that a wall has been broken through.
Additionally, an unnamed key has been found in the databases that is associated with the Solstice of Heroes:
Perhaps there is a chest behind the destroyed wall that can be opened with the key and has tasty loot for the Guardians?
By August 27, we should know. Because then the “Solstice of Heroes” event ends and so does the European Airzone activity. And who knows, maybe something will happen with the statue in Curse Week 1?
The hope for a new Exotic is not the only thing driving Guardians to feverishly solve this statue mystery. After all, a new Destiny 2 expansion, Shadowkeep, is on the horizon. Maybe the secret room also holds hints that reveal something about the expansion. After all, the European Airzone is the last big event before Shadowkeep. If Bungie has hidden any hints in the game, it will be in the European Airzone.
What do you think, what is the meaning of the cat statue and the secret room?

There are 2 PvP modes where 4 vs 4 can either compete against each other in deathmatch or capture checkpoints in the Dominion mode.
The Dark Zone offers a mix of PvEvP. There are human enemies but also hostile NPCs. Other players can contest your loot. Or you may go rogue and become a danger to other players’ loot.
Ideal for: Anyone who is a fan of good loot shooters with complex build systems and enjoys exploring large game worlds with attention to detail should definitely check out The Division 2. The post-apocalyptic setting and dense atmosphere are also recommended.
Is there a catch? Anyone hoping for a gripping story may be disappointed. The good stories in The Division 2 are told through the game world, not through cutscenes or characters.
What is Destiny 2? In the successor to the sci-fi shooter Destiny, the story takes center stage, told in an action-packed and cinematic way. You shoot your way through missions and hordes of aliens in Destiny 2 either solo or with a fireteam.
In doing so, you are always on the hunt for the best loot to improve your character! If you prefer to take out other players, you can let loose in PvP.

Plenty of content that can be played solo, but also many group activities such as raids (for up to 6 players)
Social hubs like the Farm or the Tower, where many players meet
Many weapons and armor pieces with various rarity levels

Players can form clans
The base game of Destiny 2 along with numerous Year 1 contents will be available as free-to-play with the release of the upcoming Autumn expansion Shadowkeep – in the form of Destiny 2: New Light
Ideal for: Destiny 2 remains one of the games with the best gunplay. Nowhere is shooting as much fun as in Bungie’s sci-fi shooter. Additionally, there’s a fun, interesting science fiction scenario and the hunt for ever better items for even more shooting fun!
Is there a catch? Destiny 2 has faced issues with content supply in the eyes of many players, but this is gradually being managed better. However, this comes with additional costs. Because to fully enjoy Destiny 2, you need the Forsaken expansion as well as the Annual Pass, which regularly freshens up the game with new content.
What is World of Warcraft? The fantasy MMORPG classic World of Warcraft remains stylish and attractive even today thanks to many updates and expansions. Whether you’re an Orc, Human, or Night Elf, there is plenty of high-quality content to experience, and Blizzard regularly releases new content and expansions. In addition to regular updates, there’s also a huge community and frequent holidays.

Massive quests and instances for groups and content for solo players
Huge raids with intricate boss mechanics in the endgame
A continuous hunt for better items with varying rarity levels
A large world with different thematically distinct zones
Many events and holidays throughout the year
An ongoing story that is constantly expanded
Ideal for: WoW is ideal for players looking for an easily accessible fantasy MMORPG in Western comic graphics. World of Warcraft makes it easy to get started and offers plenty of content for every taste: PvP, PvE, hardcore raiding, crafting, achievements, toys, events – WoW has it all. Additionally, there are regular large expansions that always bring new features to the game. So, if you want the “MMORPG complete package,” WoW is the right choice.
Is there a catch? In World of Warcraft, there is hardly anything to complain about. The game is mainstream at a high level and offers something for everyone. However, there will always be games that excel in individual areas – including story, graphics, combat system, or PvP – that are better. If you place a high value on these individual aspects, you might be happier elsewhere.

In Season X of Fortnite, the map is supposed to change continuously. YouTubers believe that Salty Springs could be next. Their theory is quite plausible.
What is this theory? It refers to the trailer for Season X, as you can already see the new Salty Springs there. It is not a leak, but a theory that could indeed make sense.
However, one must also be somewhat skeptical, as nothing has been found in the game yet, and the developers have not said anything about it either.
This theory has YouTubers at Salty Springs
This was discovered: The theory refers to a very short clip in the trailer for Season 10. A mech lands on the map, and you can see part of the map around it.
If you overlay this clip onto the map of Season 10, it fits perfectly between Tilted Town and Salty Springs. The only problem is that Salty Springs is no longer recognizable. You only see a body of water there:
Here the trailer is overlaid on the map. Where Salty Springs should be, you see a body of water. Source: HeyStani
What is suspected? The YouTubers now believe that this is a hidden hint at the change at Salty Springs. Epic is already showing the new Salty Springs.
YouTuber “StanPlay” presents his theory in this video:

Could the theory be true? There are definitely many indications suggesting that Salty Springs could be affected:
Salty Springs can be translated as “Salty Spring.” It would thus fit a region with waters.
Season X is currently all about time travel. The new Salty Springs could therefore be a place from the past where there actually was a salty spring.
Epic promised in the trailer that the map could change regularly.
Salty Springs has been there since the start of the game and could finally get a long-desired overhaul.
In the trailer, Epic already showed clips from Tilted Town before it was in the game. The same could have happened here with Salty Springs.
Nevertheless, one must also temper the arguments a bit. Dataminers have not found anything on this yet. So, nothing may happen, or Salty Springs may not change for a few weeks.
Tilted Town was only recently added to the game.
In addition, there was a major map change with Tilted Town just recently. It remains to be seen if Epic will actually change the next location soon.
What do you think about the theory? Could Salty Springs actually change soon?
In Apex Legends there are various landing zones, but not all are equally popular with all player types. One player took the effort and analyzed thousands of rounds with a tracker. The result was the most popular landing zones in Apex Legends.
What are the most popular landing zones in Apex Legends? By analyzing tracker data from over 100,000 matches, a Reddit user named ZYy9oQ has now provided a clear overview of the most popular landing spots in Apex Legends.
Therefore, he can make informed statements about the most popular landing spots, separated by rank. The following maps show where which players land the most.
Here is where the action happens: According to the collected data, especially Skulltown and Market are universally popular. Wetlands and Containment compete for 3rd place. The popularity of Skulltown among beginners in ranked and pros in the last division is particularly interesting.
The place always offers good loot and is not too far from the center of the map. The same goes for Market, which is even a bit closer to the center. So if you land there, you will surely find many opponents and should brace yourself for tough battles.
At these landing spots, you have your peace
Here, hardly anyone lands: The data from ZYy9oQ also shows where players land the least. The eastern part of the map is rather poorly attended. Particularly sparse are the locations Swamp and Relay.
Only in the two top-ranked divisions Diamond and Apex Predator does Swamps suddenly become very popular. But in the other fringe divisions, you are likely to find very little competition there. The reason is probably the great distance to the center and the rather unimpressive loot there.
Nevertheless, it might be more sensible to land exactly there and equip yourself with average loot in peace than to fight with dozens of other players in Skulltown for the top loot.
Tracker provides data for landing zone map
How were the data actually gathered? ZYy9oQ used a tracker program for his analysis and created a kind of heat map showing where the hottest drop zones are. Over 120,000 games of Apex Legends were analyzed for this.
On the night, patch 9.15b appeared in Teamfight Tactics. It brought minor balance changes, mainly affecting the items.
What is the biggest change? The item Runaan’s Hurricane received a significant buff. A champion with this item attacks a second target automatically with each attack.
The damage to the second target was previously only 25% of the actual attack. This value has now been tripled to 75%.
There is a special interaction with multiple versions of Runaan’s Hurricane. The second item also copies the attack of the first. Thus, with two items, you directly attack four targets, and with three items, even eight.
Guardian Angel gets the desired nerf
What items have been strengthened? In addition to Runaan’s Hurricane, there are also other items that received a buff:
Guinsoo’s Rageblade – The attack speed per stack has been increased from 4% to 5%.
Phantom Dancer – The holder can now dodge critical ability hits. This change particularly affects the champion Akali, who landed critical hits with her ability.
Sword of the Divine – The activation chance has been increased from 5% to 7%.
What items have been weakened? In the current meta, particularly the Guardian Angel and Morellonomicon are very popular. Both received a small nerf with this patch:
Guardian Angel – The life after resurrection has been reduced from 1,000 to 800.
Morellonomicon – The burn damage has been reduced from 25% to 20%.
The end of assassins?
Which champions have been buffed by the patch? Spellcasters are already very popular in their current form. Nevertheless, Veigar can still look forward to a buff:
Elise – Her attack damage has been increased from 40 to 45. The attack damage of the spiders has also been increased from 40 to 50.
Veigar – The ability damage has been increased from 300/500/700 to 300/550/800.
Changes to Twisted Fate? The official patch notes mention changes to Twisted Fate, but these are not yet in the game. They have accidentally slipped into the list, as Game Designer Mortdog mentioned on Twitter.
We have to wait another week for the release of patch 9.16. This is expected to bring four new champions:
Many players enjoy having a single game that they can play for years, one that evolves and allows them to dive deeper into it. MeinMMO presents five titles into which you can sink a lot of time if you want.
What kind of games are these? The games we present here come from different genres. However, they all share two things in common:
They are games where you can play together with many players.
They all offer the opportunity to invest a lot of time and continuously improve.
How was the selection made? Our five selected games are an unordered list, chosen based on the size of the player base, search interest, and personal assessments based on observations on MeinMMO. You will find some alternatives under each game.

The long-term motivation of WoW: World of Warcraft offers many activities that can keep players engaged even after reaching the maximum level.
Raids as a king’s discipline in PvE offer tough challenges that players can spend weeks trying to overcome. PvP arenas provide the opportunity to compete with others and climb rankings.
If you prefer a quieter experience, you can spend time with pet battles, chase achievements by farming reputation, or explore every corner of the world or engage in hours of role-playing with other players. Additionally, up to 50 character slots are available to try out and level new classes or characters.
WoW continuously supplies players with new content. Recently, Patch 8.2 brought a new area and a new raid.
WoW is worth it for you if…
you are looking for an MMORPG that tells a story you can immerse yourself in.
you are into fantasy.
you prefer a tab-targeting system over action combat.
you want to play a game with millions of other players.
